Spliced in the Neon

Static in my thoughts

Signals in my skin

Every little code

Folding me within

Barcodes on my bones, yeah I scan when I move

Tiny little ladders in my blood make the groove

Double helix halo when I stand in the light

I was written in a spiral long before I could write

I got patterns in my patterns, all my habits in strands

Every secret, every scar, every map in my hands

You can read it like a script, but you still feel lost

Try to crack my sequence, can you pay that cost?

It’s in my DNA

Every step I take, every word I say

Spun tight in the chain

I was made this way, I was made this way

It’s in my DNA

From the dark to the day, I don’t have to explain

Run wild in my veins

I was made this way, I was made this way

Got my mother in my laugh, got my father in my rage

Ancestors in my shadow when I step on the stage

Little flicker in my cells when the pressure gets cold

They been dancing in my marrow since the stories were told

I’m the sum of every glitch that survived every storm

Every random little spark that decided to form

You can judge what you see, but you don’t see the thread

All the lives that had to end so this one could be bred

It’s in my DNA

Every step I take, every word I say

Spun tight in the chain

I was made this way, I was made this way

It’s in my DNA

From the dark to the day, I don’t have to explain

Run wild in my veins

I was made this way, I was made this way

Zoom in closer

Lines get stranger (hey)

Spells in the spiral

Little lone danger

If I break, I

Break in patterns too

If I change, I

Rewrite all the rules

It’s in my DNA

Every step I take, every word I say

Spun tight in the chain

I was made this way, I was made this way

It’s in my DNA

From the dark to the day, I don’t have to explain

Run wild in my veins

I was made this way, I was made this way (oh)

I was made this way, I was made this way
